Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr future is in doubt with reports claiming the Portugal legend wants to quit the club just months after joining.
The 38-year-old only arrived at the Saudi Arabia side in December having left Manchester United under a cloud following an explosive interview with Piers Morgan. He scored 24 goals for United in the 2021-22 campaign but was in part blamed for a lack of cohesion in the frontline.
The arrival of Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford in the summer seemed to accelerate his departure with the Portugal international often out of the team and, having scored three goals in the first half of the campaign, he left ahead of the World Cup.

He was on target in Qatar but even fell out of the starting lineup for his country ahead of his move to Saudi Arabia. And it now seems as though that switch has gone sour. Here's the latest.
Not great. Ronaldo's arrival was meant to herald a trophy-laden for Al-Nassr but they look set to end the campaign empty-handed.
He has 12 goals in 12 league games but there have been notable mishaps on and off the pitch for the former United man. Al-Nassr were knocked out of the Saudi Super Cup at the semi-final stage by league rivals Al Ittihad. The goals flowed but a crucial defeat to Al-Ittihad in the league cost them ground in the title race.
Ronaldo was involved in a public spat with members of the Al Feiha team as he accused them of 'not wanting to play' during a goalless draw in early April. Reports then emerged that Ronaldo and his teammates had lost faith with then-boss Rudi Garcia. His departure was duly announced.
